HAIL TO THE CHIEF.
The Presidents Cordial Recep-
ton in the South
Meeting of MIR. and Mrs. Cleve,
land and Mrs. Polk.
London's Unemployed Demand
Work.
A Quiet Day.

NASHVILLE, Oct. 1.-THE president
and Mrs. Cleveland passed a very quiet
time Sunday, going out in the morning
for a stroll over the great deer park and
the famous Belle Meade farm. After
lunch the president and Mrs. Cleveland,
escorted by Gen. Jackson, drove into
Nashville to pay their respects to Mrs,
Polk. The affair was made as informal as
possible, it being designed merely as an
interchange of courtesies between the lady
OF the white house of forty years ago and
the lady of to-day.
The Polk mansion was surrounded by a
great throng OF people. The visitors were
received at the Church street entrance,
Governor Taylor offering his arm to the
president and Mrs. Cleveland taking that
of Mr.. George w. Fall.
Governor Taylor made the presentation
of the president to Mrs. Polk. The lat
ter extended her hand and said: ''Mr.
President, | am indeed delighted to meet
you"
And l to meet you Mrs. Polk" re-
piled the president. Il have looked for
ward to this visit with the most pleasant
anticipations."
Mrs. Cleveland was presented, and the
two ladies conversed cordially for a few
minutes. The other gentlemen were then
presented to the president and Mrs.
Cleveland, after which the conversation
became general, the president devoting
himself almost constantly during the
brief remainder of his stay to Mrs. Polk.
Their conversation related principally to
the white house and Washington. The
lady was an interested questioner and the
president a willing informant. Mrs.
Cleveland was the object of marked atten
ton from all the gentlemen.
Mrs. Polk presented Mrs. Cleveland
with a bouquet of Marechal Neil roses in
the name of her grand neice, Miss Sadie
Fall, who sailed Saturday from Liverpool
for America. She then invited the party
to refreshments, at which each guest was
served with a glass of sherry IS years
old. The guests, after visiting the tomb
of x-President Polk, returned to Belle
Meade.
Mrs. Villas was quite exhausted by the
fatigue and excitement of the journey
from Madison, and was confined to her
room nearly all day.
Somebody started a canard Sunday
evening that Il rebel flag was floating in
the breeze at one of the principal corners
in the city. An investigation was imme-
diately made, but no foundation for the
story could be gathered.

Ell PAso, Oct 1.-THE two train rob-
bers killed by Wells Fargo Express Mes
senger Smith have been identified as Jack
Smith and Dick MAYER. Smith killed a
French merchant named Jules Boissellier
in Paso Del Norte two years ago and shot

that it had to be amputated Sheriff
White, United States Deputy Marshal
Ross and a constable are on the trail of a
man about eighty miles east of Ell Paso,
who is believed to be a confederate.
The Mexican Central road, which has
been battling for the past two months
with washouts along parts of the line
where they could least be expected, has at
last resumed its regular run of trains, both
freight and passenger. General Manager
E. w. Jackson reached here to-day and
says he is ready to handle all the business
turned over to the road.

and comments then ceased.
CHATTANOOGA, Oct. l7.-BefOre the
train pulled into Chattanooga it was
greeted by a mass of humanity that
filled the depot and streets to OVERLOOKING.
The president and party were met by a
reception committee and escorted to the
carriages in waiting. All along the line of
march the streets were profusely deco
rated. The president was greeted every
where with the greatest enthusiasm,
crowds of men and women pressing for
ward in the rain to shake hands. To all
he could he g~raciously held out his hand,
receiving many God bless yous." When
the party returned to the depot it was
Sis, thence the throng pressed forward
to the platform of the car to shake the
president hand until the train moved off.
ATLANTA, Oct. 1.-THE approach to
Atlanta was signalled by the firing of can
non, red lights and other demonstrations.
The train arrived at the depot about II 80,
and amid the most enthusiastic demon

to Kimball house and retired for the
night. The jam of people was remen

Detroit Wins.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1.-THE world
championship game played here to day
was very much on the machine order I'M.
til the ninth inning, when, with two men
out, Baldwin muffed O'Neill's foul fly.
O'Neill evinced his gratitude by lining
the second ball pitched over center field
fence, thereby averting a shut out for St.
Louis. The fielding of both teams was
sharp and brilliant. Spectators number
ing between 1000 and 5000 seemed to be
partial to the Browns, and cheered them
whenever the opportunity was offered.
The st. Louis men did some daring base
running in the first W innings, but after
Bennett had nailed a couple OF them,
they Rugged their bases rather closely.
Score-Detroit 8, St. Louis /.

Somewhat Inharmonfous.

= MTNNEAPoLIs, Oct. 1.-THE trouble
over the inharmonlous executive board of
the knights of Labor was settled, at least
temporarily, this afternoon by the vote OF
the assembly leaving the officers as they
are. Bailey made a long speech to-day in
defense of his position, charging the vari,
GUS members of the board with irregular.
ity. John Hayes was charged with appro.
p~riating funds and being a political wire
puller. Powderly had made a mesalliance
with the church of Rome, and Litchman
had suppressed important papers. These
gentlemen answer all the charges salts
factorily and Litchman brought in evil
dence that Bailey and Barry had en-
ployed a stenographer in the general Office
to act as a SOY.

Seeding

CHICAGO, Oct. lit is alleged that
the action Of the general assembly OF the
knights of Labor at Minneapolis in sus
tanning Mr.. Powderly in his action declar,
ing the great stockyards strike off and
ordering the strikers to return to work has
given considerable impetus to a movement
in district assembly No. 81, which includes
in its membership all the stockyard EN-,
ployes, to go out of the knights altogether
and reorganize a central union of labor
organizations.
A leading member of the Barrelmakers
Assembly of the Knights of Labor ex.
presses the opinion that the barrelmakers
would secede from the Knights of Labor
in the very near future and become an
independent organization.

G. NJ. Hall brought in bucket Of
the finest potatoes ever raised in Bent
county last Monday, which were
grown on his farm on the north side
of the river.-I.a Junta "Tribune"
1t has been said by some that po-
tatoes would not grow in this valley,
but Mr.. A. II. Edmisten, who lives
one mile south of town, informs US
that he will have spendid crop this
season. The potatoes are growing
nicely, the yield will be large and
not one drop of water was used by
irrigation. Mr.. Einisten had roast
ing ears the 25th of July.-La Yeta

On Sunday afternoon the Indus
trial Club of Evergreen held meet
ing q. the Office of a. F. Post at Ey-
ergreen, Colorado, Mr.. 4, A, Pier
son, the President of the organiza-
ton, called the meeting to order and
stated that in in view OF the near
approach of the potato harvest, 1t had
been decided to take measures TO
more effectually provide for appro-
pirate and responsible channels
through winch mountain potatoes
could be marketed. The results of
the organization last year had been
somewhat successful, although com
menced too late in the season to
reach all the potatoe producers. The
effects of organized effort had shown
what might be done if all the potatoe
raisers unite.
Mr.. George Wentwood was then
made temporary Secretary, and Mr..
J. J. Hines moved that all the pota-
toe growers in the mountains be re-
quested to unite and carry out the
objects of the organization; that To-
cal clubs be formed to cooperate
with each other, that to further the
plans the President and Secretary be
instructed to organize branch or
local club at Creswell on Saturday,
August 6; also a club nj Brookfeld
Junction, at which places delegates
should be appointed to meet at Ever
green on Saturday, August Is, to
complete plans and secure an agent
in Denver to handle our products.
The motion carried.
1t was stated that the crop of early
potatoes will not be as large as usual.
but the quality is much superior to
anything yet produced in the noun
tains. The rains which have fallen
during the past month have been
beneficial, and the prospect for a
good crop of late potatoes is very
favorable.
In regard to other crops farmers
are feeling much encouraged, and
expect q much better yield than
usual.-Denver ''Republican."
LOUISVILLE. Ky, Aug. o.-The
following remarkable resolutions

ance of Floyd County, Indiana, at

tloneerlng for second term of office.

Cleveland before starting on his
pending electioneering tour through
the West and South, to first write
out his resignation as President and

Washington.
Resolved, further, that the presi-
dent and secretary OF this alliance
are hereby instructed to forward a
certified copy of these resolutions by
letter to the President of tie United

KEEPING POOR STOCK.

Few farmers consider with sufficient
care the losses which accrue from the
keeping ofpoor stock. This applies to all
Ethe varieties of domesticated animals,
but especially to COWS. A COW is the
most costly animal to keep of all the
farm stock. 1t is kept because of the
valuable product of milk and butter
But one that produces half a pound of
butter day will cost as much as one
that produces three times as much.
The butter cow may cost little more
originally, but its progeny will cost no
more to rear than that of the poor one,
and the feed and care will be the same
for both. The difference may seem
small when the daily quantity is con-
sidered, but the yearly difference is very
large, amounting to between 100 and
$50 pounds, for the butter COW will not
only yield more but will produce it
longer. A COW that yields only 100
pounds of butter, worth 500 in year,
is kept at loss of at least $40, while
one that yields 250 pounds pays a profit
of 500, and one that produces 300 pounds
pays $50 over and above the cost of
keeping. The difference in herd Of
20 COWS is as an income of $400 year
is to one of 81 200. It is sufficiently
large to make all the difference to the
farmers family between poverty and
wealth. And yet there are thousands
of farmers who have been content to
remain in this condition of poverty be-
cause of their improbable stock, year
after year, without making an effort to
relieve themselves from it. The way
out of it is not difficult, and if start is
once made the rest is easy. All that is
then required is time, and to let the
thing run itself along. This is to select
the best one has, if no better can be pro-
cured, and to breed the cow to a better
bull, choosing one from a more produc-
tive breed. A pure-bred animal of al.
most any kind will make a good start
in the way of improvement, and when
this is once undertaken progress is
made continually.

REV. J. B. DRAPER DEAD.

Inc announcement on last Tuesday
morning Chat Rev.. B. Draper, chap
lain of Kemper Hall, was dead, took
many Of our citizens by surprise, as but
few had heard that he was sick. He
was attacked by that relentless disease,
pneumonia, which no medical skill was
able to battle, and died on Monday
evening, after an illness of three DAYS.
He was healthy appearing man, but
suddenly taken from the ranks of the
living while in the vigor of manhood;
his age was thirty-three years. Kemper
Hall has lost three chaplains by death
the past four years. Rev. DR.. Lance
died January, 1888 Rev. DR.. Liver
more died May. 1886, and Rev. J. B.
Draper, January, 1887. Chaplain ORA
per was New England born, and came
from the English stock. He was edu-
Gated in the General Seminary of New
York city. He entered the ministry
nine years ago; he came to Kenosha
from Freeport. Ill.,, in June last, and
entered upon the duties of chaplain at
Kemper Hail He also for several
weeks had charge of the parish of ST.
Matthews church after the resignation
of Rector French, but finding the duties
of attending to both religious interests
OF the church and of Kenper Hall too
laborious he relinquished his parochial
office. His funeral will be observed in
kemper Hall chapel to-day friday.
Chaplain Draper was a man of affable
manners, a fluent speaker, an agreeable
conversational, man of strong convic-
lons and much positiveness, never
yielding a point to accommodate diff
ference ofopinion when he honestly be-
leVed himselfrigbt. He was proverbial
or his kindness of heart and sympathy |
or the suffering classes. He was well in
ormed on the:general topics of the day. |
hr. Draper leaves wife and two chill |
iren. His parents reside in Texas.
